Doctor discusses the dangers of kissing someone who passed away and the health risks it can create

When we lose someone close, we feel overwhelmed. Sadness and grief settle in our heart and the thought of never seeing that person again can be unbearable.

However, despite these feelings and the urge to kiss the person whom we lost, a doctor from Moldova, Dr. Viktor Ivanovik, shares the risks associated with kissing someone deceased. His video, in which he discusses this highly sensitive topic, has caused a widespread discussion and debate on social media.

According to him, around nine hours after someone dies, the body starts to decompose, a natural process during which bacteria from the decomposing tissues start to surface.

These bacteria can pose health risks to individuals who come into contact with the body, particularly through kissing.

He says he’s perfectly aware that this practice is seen as a final farewell and sort of respect towards the deceased person, but he believes people should be aware of the risk they put themselves into by unknowingly expose themselves to harmful pathogens.

As expected, people’s opinions were divided.

“I kissed my father and would do it again, no matter the risk! He is my father!” one person commented. Others, however, appreciated his advice and wrote they would reconsider their decision of kissing someone who has died as a final goodbye no matter the emotional connection they had with the deceased.

Dr. Ivanovik emphasized the issue of one’s sense of smell being affected if kissing someone who passed away.

The body’s decomposition can produce an unpleasant odor that might remain in one’s memory longer than expected. Some people report a significant change in their sense of smell and taste after such an act, adding another layer of complexity to the already emotional farewell experience.

“Honestly, I don’t think anyone can resist not kissing their parent on the hand or forehead one last time. I kissed my father’s hand for the last time,” a follower commented.

This 96-year-old lady’s home looks normal from the outside but the inside will blow you away

For some people, moving from home to home isn’t a big deal, but for those who have spend their lifetime at the same place this change might be one of the hardest they’ve ever experienced.

One 96-year-old woman decided to sell her property which was built some 72 years ago. The place looks like any other house from the outside, but the interior is out of this world. She had picked every single piece by herself and took great care of each piece of furniture over the years.

If you take a look inside, you will feel like you are back to the seventies. Everything is bright, luxurious, and filled with vintage items. On top of that, the place is perfectly clean and shiny, which is a sign that this elderly woman treasured her possessions dearly.

While some believe it’s old-fashioned, others say it rouses some old, country feeling and brings nostalgia.
